Pic related, I remember thinking the 3.2 inch screen was pretty big at the time(lol).

Droid Eris. It was pretty awesome for the time, trackball and all. Now of course it's hilariously underpowered, but hardware-wise it was well built.

I used that launcher for a little while, came with a custom ROM.
Jose Howard
Me too on Virgin Mobile. It was $169.99 which was really cheap at the time. I bought it September 2011.

old phones were hideous

I miss the fuck out of htc's late 00s/early 10s aesthetic

Still have it in its box.

This.
The GOAT of phones

I loved this phone, It was designed very well and I loved being able to use custom ROMs with it.
I don't have it anymore though.
Jordan Butler
I then got a Moto Jow Forums gen 1, my favorite phone ever

Say what you will, but holy shit this thing's drag to text functionality was fucking godly. You could miss like 3 letters in a word and it would still know what you were trying to spell.
Brody Roberts
I'd post a pic but it was some cheap Samsung entry level phone I can't remember.
Cameron Lewis
Never had one

gosh I miss this little bastard, when 1200mah battery would last me days and I kept a spare in my wallet to swap incase I needed

Shit phone, chink stuff, but it worked
Daniel Brooks
HTC Vivid. Everything about it sucked gigantic moose balls and I fucking hated it.
Liam Reyes
HTC DNA was my first Android after an OG iPhone. All those early Androids were a pain in the ass, but the audio on this was pretty good for a phone at the time. I had it for like a year before I bought another and eBay'd it...got more for the Beats earbuds than I did the phone.
I also remember coming to Jow Forums back then and asking for opinions on what droid to get and I got yelled at by some autists because I didn't know that all Androids weren't Droids. Those were the days.
Bentley Myers
HTC Wildfire S
Nathaniel Davis
Note 3 is the first one that I actually owned and used
I was so late to the game that it was truly mindblowing. It could do so much when compared to the other stuff I'd used (small older iphone, symbian stuff).
Alexander Cook
I FUCKING LOVED PHYSICAL KEYBOARDS!
Fuck touch screen keyboards.
Evan Sullivan
Samsung moment. Having that touchpad clicky button was essential for web browsing since you could use that thing to highlight anything you could click on.
Blake Mitchell
HTC G1
bought it from a Chinese restaurant waitress after tracking it down on Craigslist
Cooper James
I stil believe this was highest android ever reached. It was sad to see how my htc desire waa becoming slower and slower as apps were getting heavier and heavier with animations and no optimisations...
Jackson Wood

This. Got slow but what made me switch was the USB port fucking up and refusing to charge.

Still using it, I don't need more.

This one. It was alright for some time, played music well, was basically using Samsung's Android 2.3 all the time, installed few small but cool games to play into it, but eventually it started to lag even after attempt of rooting it. Got it because I wanted a smartphone like my mom's (which was black version) because it looked cool and it was a new tech to me when I was 15, but dad got me girly one, and everyone in school called me gay for that. 2 years later got Galaxy S3, which was a bit better, but still shit. It was really weird times then. I feel guilty for using anything Samsug.
Julian Powell
Sony Ericsson Xperia X8
William Walker
Same here, and came from an iPhone as well. I miss it, I have a Note 8 now and it's a nice device but the aspect ratio makes so much less sense than the Note 3's did.
Owen Gomez
Moto G1, battery started dying recently.
Jose Miller
Still rockin it with a custom rom. Works great.
John Miller
It was the original Galaxy Tab. Before that I used a hand-me-down tiny Motorola slide phone. After the Galaxy Tab, I got an Xperia X10 Mini Pro.
David Davis
Galaxy ace was a terrible terrible phone. I had one, and I hated using it so much. It had 128 mb of internal memory, most of which was taken by the OS, so I could not install more than like 3 apps. And keep in mind that it was released almost at the same time as Nexus 4. It's genuinely the worst piece of technology I ever owned.
Jacob Walker
Alcatel OT 903. It was pretty bad, I eventually got a Moto G2 and then a Moto G5 which is my current phone.

Had a Sony Ericsson w800i dumbphone before that

I wanted this, my carrier only had GT-I9100 S2
Not bad though
Robert Davis
What happened to HTC? I don't see any new phones from them nowadays
Isaiah Torres
Whoa I have the same!
Upgraded to gingerbread cyanogenmod since stock was froyo
Adam Cox
It was failed to be a phones, its microphone is just too quiet. Use that for a few days and I need to buy a new one.
THL W200 that was brought after that working fine though.
Ethan Perez
Kayden Rodriguez
It was shit.
Liam Roberts
Not an android phone but my first experience using android was on a Samsung Omnia using the andromnia rom.

Android apps really never worked well with a 320x240 screen.

A3(2017).
I used to be the iToddler but I got tired of being constantly BTFO.
Nathan Jackson
Got it last January. Does the job, but you seriously need an external battery if you ever intend on watching videos or keeping the screen on for more than 30 minutes every day.
Hunter Green
Same.
Used the Samsung Galaxy Mini for like 4 years before finally switching to Galaxy Trend.
Surprisingly durable and lengthy standby time for such a cheap phone.
Lucas Robinson
Ryan Thompson
The battery on this thing is INSANE. I have one, too.
Aaron Morales
Came here to post this. This phone was GOAT, except for the annoying proprietary charger. It was ahead of it's time for excluding a headphone jack.
Kevin Brown
How big is the screen? Two inches?
I hope you won't really try to watch videos on it, I'm pretty sure I've made my vision worse by watching videos on my Siemens phone shared with Bluetooth.
Zachary Bennett
2.45"
And yes, you're not supposed to watch a whole movie with it, but hey, it's possible! It's not underpowered at least.
Jose Adams
LG Optimus L7 II P710
Got it in 2014 after years using a Nokia C3, wich I still have it

Not him, but new phones offer nothing attractive and costs like a GPU.
Isaac Ward
b&rp Moto Defy. Came with 2.3 or something, upgraded it up to 4.1
Bentley Martin
xperia sola. Running android gingerbread
Xavier Bell
Bought it in 2011. The guy who sold me it, told me that it was of the best phones out there back in the day. What a fucking liar.
It bricked two years ago, but the screen is still intact. I even was able to install Lollipop on it, and it somewhat worked.
Jackson Gutierrez
HTC Hero. Pre-ordered it back in 2009, I remember having to wait a few months due to supply issues.
Dylan Butler

This thing was amazing, I loved it. My favorite feature was the screen off animation.

It's interesting to see how things that were state of the art not that long ago now look like 90s PDAs compared to modern smartphones.
pic related was mine, a cheap, weak thing even compared to it's own time.
Ryder Sanchez
the best
Jose Ward
Put MIUI on the HTC HD2. Now I use a Xiaomi phone with Lineage kek.
Joseph Thompson
HTC got snuffed out by Apple's and Samsung's much higher marketing budgets causing their demise in 2012. A few years later, most of their R&D team got bought by Google.
Sad because HTC's devices had a very premium feel due to the use of aluminum unibody shells compared to the competing Galaxy's plastic everything. I really liked my One M7 but I think every HTC device after the One M8 was downhill from there.
Joshua Miller
Motorola atrix
Elijah Miller
I had the same shit, it was pretty good until I botched the power button while replacing the screen
Ethan Green
also my first smartphone
lasted me a solid 3 years

Galaxy Ace. Was given as a Christmas gift. Flashed CyanogenMod (Jellybean back then) after hearing from a friend and didn't look back.

Jaxon Ross

Blake Adams
Easton Foster
It was my first smart phone and even though I have fond memories of it I must have not liked it even at the time because I switched to a regular phone after using it for less than a year and only started using smart phones again 3-4 years later.
Jason Mitchell
Are you me?
I loved to put ROMs on this thing then OC it to ~720mhz. It was much more capable than phones in its price range, destroying all the X8s then.
Jordan Brown
Xperia Neo
Still have it around, it runs Android 7.1.2, although badly
It world okay as a Boinc machine, kinda fast for it's age, the shell it's quite broken and I'm thinking about replacing it
